Daredevil National Geographic Filmmaker Discusses Secrets of His Extreme Style

No special effects wizard could conjure up the images Bryan Smith, the award-winning National Geographic Channel filmmaker, captures every time he goes out with his camera. Instead of depending on digital magic, Smith relies on old-fashioned courage to document extreme sports in the world's most challenging environments. He has shinnied up into the treetops of primeval forests, kayaked over thundering waterfalls and clung to cliff-faces ... all while filming. Now Smith reports to the National Geographic headquarters for The Lens of Adventure, a discussion of gripping moments from his assignments around the globe. While showing some of his most jaw-dropping footage, Smith will explain why suffering is so important to his success.
